What the company is doing

On 01/26/2024, the firm emailed an "URGENT-MEDICAL DEVICE RECALL NOTIFICATION" Letter to customer informing them that, The Surgical Technique Guide, LIT-85141, and Instructions for Use, INS-130, were revised to require hole preparation prior to insertion of an IdentiTi SA Graft Bolt, as well as to add a new caution statement, to confirm with fluoroscopy that the graft bolt insertion angle is as close as possible to a 40-degree trajectory. The revised labeling mitigates potential fracturing of the Graft Bolt intra-operatively or post-operatively. Customer are instructed to: Please share this notice with all of those who need to be aware within your organization or any organization where the affected product has been transferred. - Inform doctors and surgical staff of the labeling (surgical technique and instructions for use) - Please fill out the last page of this letter to confirm that you have read this notification and will complete the necessary actions as described in this notification. - If you have any questions/concerns or require assistance with the correction, please contact by e-mailing [email protected] or calling 1-800-922-1356.
